  1. Heck, that came quick. I think there's something really cool about yellow guitars. You don't se them that often. Looks good twigman
  2. Cheers Al, I've always had a tuner at the end of my chain and never had issues. Used to have the TU-2 and used it as a mute if I had more than one effect on. Guess it's just habit now
  3. Just finished this up today thanks to an obbm daisy chain. GGG tuned muff and Polytune Mini powered by a Diago Micropower 9. Sounds great.

  4. Yeah I have a few times. I wouldn't hesitate to order from them, always got stuff from them in about a week and usually avoided customs. There are some stories on the web about how bad they are if things go wrong though...communication doesn't exist basically.
  5. I think it looks great
  6. well played!
  7. Can you tell us more about the sticker... Never played a Jag so can't really help, but all MIJ basses I've played have been top notch, the reviews of the Japanese Jaguars are very positive and the red one with matching headstock looks sublime. So, back to the sticker...

    Ok here goes. To be honest, I'm not 100% happy with the wiring and how neat it is...it's better than my previous attempts, but still! I first built this pedal to Green Muff specs in 2007 and then sold it, it's made the rounds on Basschat and I finally got it back again in December last year. Fancied a change so got a new PCB and components and the rest is history. Enjoy [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v292/goat_punisher/2012-04-24161422.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v292/goat_punisher/2012-04-24161403.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v292/goat_punisher/2012-04-24161600.jpg[/IMG]

  12. Anything in those 50's and 60's pastel colours gets my nod of approval

    Well that was easy....a quick dab of the iron on a cold joint at the dc jack and it springs into life...just an FYI, the GGG tuned muff sounds amazing! Thanks for the help folks
  14. I love Warmoth. Great stuff, and I remember watching your build when you were doing it. Saying that, they're not cheap and that spec isn't a million miles from the one you already have. I'm not sure on this, but with a P-J, is the P in a different position to 'normal'? Who am I to say though....I'd buy a Warmoth for everyday of the week if I could!

    Thanks folks, I'll take a look tonight. Never used an audio probe but they sure look useful. Cheers

    Hi all, I figured this would be the best place to ask this... I spent most of yesterday building a GGG tuned muff and...welll....it doesn't work. I've built 3 pedals before and all have worked first time. LED comes on, but not getting any sound both with the effect on and bypassed. I'm going to have a look at it tonight and see if there's anything obvious, but anyone got any ideas what might cause that to happen? Cheers
  17. This is a copy of the bass the orignal bassist from Weezer used. Geddy body Warmoth tele neck and pickguard Schecter Monstertone Pickups Schaller bridge and tuners CTS pots, russian PIO cap, cloth wire [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v292/goat_punisher/2012-04-19165514.jpg[/IMG]
  18. We used to have an old LDV that was bright yellow. Always tried to get it to 88mph (Back to the Future style), and only managed it once. Most things were held on with rope and gaffa tape and we were always being pulled over by the police. Best one was when we went to T in the Park and got all the way there and most of the way back, stopped at the services and the key had melted in the ignition so we were stuck in bonny Scotland. I think it was Johnstone services...great services! That was a long one.
  19. Hell of a rig, I used to run the AD200B through my Matamp 2x12 and it was just beautiful! Good luck with the sale...both these bits are pretty rare secondhand.
  20. [quote name='Mr. Foxen' timestamp='1333491853' post='1602600'] Seen the MKII GT200 too? [/quote] What's that all about then??
  21. When I say tones, I mean sounds.
  22. Apparently there can be quite a wide range of tones due to inconsistencies at the factory...simply put, some sounded great, others not so much. Not sure how much truth is in that, but every one I've played has been great!
  23. that was the intended response!
  24. That is beautiful. I'm a sucker for the pastel 60's colours. Love them!
